When the operator asks if Kelley can go in and get King’s body, Kelley replies she can’t swim. Kelley says she tried to rescue King with objects surrounding the pool — including a shovel — but he wasn’t moving.

Like what?? If she can’t swim, what else could she have done? That is why I just insisted that my girfriend take swimming lessons along with her twin girls. We ALL should know how to swim…you never know when you may have to save a life.

For one, she could go knock on a neighbor’s door while waiting for EMS.

I don’t consider myself a swimmer, but everyone knows how to hold your breath while under water. If I had a loved one in a situation like that, I would have to dive under and try to move them, then float back to the surface. It’s not that difficult, even for a non swimmer. I did it before.

This is a sad and tragic end to Mr King’s life but i think something is a bit suspect hre because his neighbors reported that they heard him crying out loud and then there was a splash like he fell in the or was maybe was pushed and we know the rest of the story.
